  • I do Jillian Michael's 30 day shred, stationary bike and walking the dog at home in the morning. Then at night afterwork I hit the gym (usally 3-4 nights a week). It was hard getting started at home, but now that I have developed a schedule, on the days I miss it due to an early appointment or life getting in the way I…

  • I'm on day 10 today and LOVE the way it makes me feel!! In the 1st week, I dropped 1.5 pounds, 1/2" in my waist, 1" in my hips & 1.5" in my thighs.

  • As the others have suggest, I make my meals for a week on the weekend and then all I have to do is reheat for lunches. It takes a bit of planning, but it is healthy and you can control your calories. However, I also do throw in a frozen meal or canned soup occassionally. I really enjoy the Weight Watchers Smart Ones frozen…

  • I love snacking on pickles (VERY low calories), pineapple (canned cause I'm too lazy to cut a fresh pineapple), Triscuits (especially the Rosemary & Olive Oil flavor) and popcorn (get the low fat, usually only 90-100 calories for the whole bag). My favorite easy and low cal/fat recipe is something that I stumbled on while…
